Listening to the Radio

Auto station search

The auto station search function automatically

searches for radio stations that have good

reception.

Press and hold the + or – button.

Release the button once the frequency shown

in the display panel starts changing. The auto

search function will automatically stop at the

next station that has good reception.

Notes concerning auto station search

• The auto search function may not operate correctly

from 90 MHz to 108 MHz in the FM band, due to

interference from TV signals. In such cases, use the

manual station selection method.

• When TV reception shares some bandwidth with FM

reception,it may interfere with the FM signals.

Tuning interval

The two factory settings for the AM tuning

interval are 10 kHz per step (in U.S. and Cana-

dian models) and 9 kHz per step (in Taiwanese

and European models).

The two factory settings for the FM tuning

interval are 100 kHz per step (in U.S. and

Canadian models) and 50 kHz per step (in

Taiwanese and European models).

When using the CD/Receiver System in a region

that has a different AM/FM frequency band

allocation, perform the following operation to

change the AM/FM tuning interval from 10 kHz/

100 kHz per step to 9 kHz/50 kHz per step (or

vice-versa).

While tuned to an AM or FM station, press and

hold the STOP button first, then press and hold

the MODE button. Keep all two buttons

pressed for at least three seconds.

The AM/FM tuning range is switched as shown

in Table below.
